Why Is It Harder To Move People To Open Source - Decentralized Options? - Lemmy.World

We have a lot of options for all social media and other apps, but it is hard to catch people’s attention. How can we make more people use these platforms rather than a platform that p.dophiles run

People do not care about decentralization and privacy that is the harsh reality. The best way to promote privacy is to not talk about privacy and provide concrete advantages and unique feature.

Most people moved to Cara not pixelfed. Most people moved to upscrolled not loops.

Also the marketing is terrible. The fediverse creators should go to tech podcast, contact tech medias, participating to general tech events etc

This is the second comment I see mentioning Upscrolled, and the first I see mentioning Cara. Up until like two minutes ago, I have not heard about either of those, and I think I don’t want to hear about them anyway. I haven’t been using TikTok or Instagram anyway, so I don’t really need a replacement for those apps.
